Imo this is really not a good shot, you run the uneccessary risk of scratching and you're not moving the 6 ball. You leave Alex an easy solution with the 8 ball, and by leaving the 6 ball where it is you will have to defend against that ball on your next turn at the table.

Bill,

Here's the layout if Jose didn't scratch. Alex plays off the 8 and no matter what happens to the 8, Jose either plays off the 8 or 6 next. It's not that difficult.

Jose is trying to stay alive here, not win the game on his next shot. He only needs to deny Alex a shot, that's all. If Alex ends up with a simple reply, that's the penalty for Jose getting in this position in the first place.
